Re: AC/DC welding questions
dang! is it 4:30 already!? i have been working on this thing all day long then. thing was stuck, and stuck good! I have both ends apart and havnt seen anything major yet. funny thing, on the exciter brushes they used stainless steel springs and the springs are like new! on the DC end they did not, and every one of them need replaced. same with bearings, exciter end is a sealed bearing and appears to be fine, other end was not and needs a new bearing. getting the exciter appart was a head scratcher! somebody was going to drive it from that end with a driveshaft, and i dont know how they splined the shaft but the splines had to go. no way for it to come apart, splines were bigger than the rotor/ armature what ever you call it! well let me get my hind end to town and get some batteries for the camera, i highly doubt there are any here!
